Annual Code Amendments are part of the City’s ongoing effort to make development regulations more user-friendly for developers, residents and staff. The proposed amendments correct errors, eliminate text ambiguity or redundancy, and clarify text so that it reflects current code interpretations. The Annual Code Amendments consist of the following components:

Code Maintenance Amendments: These amendments are generally not significant policy changes; they typically clarify existing standards and update requirements based on changes to other codes (e.g., Tree Code, Building Code).

Policy Amendments: These amendments involve changes that could be considered significant policy amendments.
